Boil water advisory in effect for City of Rensselaer

RENSSELAER - A boil water advisory is in effect for more than half the city of Rensselaer through Monday, officials said.

City Hall closed early Friday due to the water emergency. Questions are being forwarded to the Rensselaer Police Department at 462-7453, according to the city.

The issue was caused by a large break in the 2 million gallon tank in Rensselaer that serves the city residents. Due to this, some neighborhoods can expect low pressure while others may not receive water at all.
